What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Nivada Grenchen Chronomaster 38mm Automatic Chronograph

Owners widely appreciate the Nivada Grenchen Chronomaster 38mm Automatic Chronograph for its perfect 38mm size and faithful vintage reproduction, with one owner finding its worn bezel enhances its appeal. Reviewers praise its unique "baked" tropical dial, which mimics patina without the risks of a vintage piece. However, one owner reported a feeling of poor construction and lighter-than-expected weight, while another regretted the automatic caseback causing the watch to sit high on the wrist. The chronograph's 100m water resistance is noted as a slight limitation. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Nivada Grenchen Chronomaster 38mm Automatic Chronograph highly for its excellent vintage aesthetic and unique dial that offers the enjoyment of a tropical watch without the associated risks.

Tissot Supersport NBA Special Edition

The Tissot Supersport NBA Special Edition features a 45.5mm case and 100m water resistance. Owners note the bracelet tapers from 22mm to 20mm, which feels better on the wrist. Some in the community find the 44-45mm case size too large. Tissot watches are generally considered good value for the price. Overall, owners appreciate the bracelet taper for improved wearability, though some find the case size on the larger side for a quartz sports watch.
